[QUOTE="meltbanana314, post: 89823"] OS X does come with MySQL by default. I've never dealt with MS SQL (and I *really* don't want to.) Some of the fundamentals should work the same but being told to only work with one database is really silly. It's like only being told to work in Visual Basic, when there are a ton of different scripting languages out there that are multiplatform rather than VB (and MS SQL) that will only work on Windows. I know it's probably none of my business but you should try and convice your instructor(s) that MySQL (and PostgreSQL) are just as valid as Microsoft's database. [/QUOTE]
